The pumped hydroelectric energy storage mentioned by Long Jiewen is the energy storage method with the most mature technology, the best economy and the most conditions for large-scale development in the currently hot industry of energy storage. According to data from the Zhongguancun Energy Storage Industry Technology Alliance, in 2021, the cumulative installed pumped storage capacity accounts for 86.2% of the world's operational electric energy storage projects.
Although pumped hydroelectric energy storage is the most widely used and accounts for the highest proportion in the energy storage market, in the energy storage segment, pumped hydroelectric energy storage Electrochemical energy is the energy storage technology attracting the most attention in the industry. walk. Currently, the new energy storage represented by electrochemical energy storage is experiencing a new cycle.The investment, and electric battery companies are one of the main players. In the competition between pumped hydro storage and new energy storage, cost will be one of the key variables.
It is possible that water towers will be used for photovoltaic power generation for a long time, but the following factors should be considered:
1. Water storage capacity: Water towers need. have sufficient water storage capacity to meet daily water needs. Photovoltaic power generation systems can produce electricity from the sun, but they cannot provide a continuous supply of electricity. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the water tower can still provide an adequate water source when photovoltaic production is not available.
2. Pump power supplyWater pump: If the water tower needs to use a water pump to provide a water source, it is necessary to ensure that the photovoltaic power generation system can provide sufficient power for the water pump . This requires selecting the appropriate capacity of the photovoltaic power generation system based on the power and operating time of the water pump.
3. System Stability: Photovoltaic power generation systems must have stable operating capabilities to ensure continuous power supply. For long-term use of water towers, you should consider selecting high-quality photovoltaic modules and inverters to improve the stability and reliability of the system.
4. Maintenance and Monitoring: It is very important to regularly maintain and monitor the working status of the photovoltaic power generation systemto ensure normal operation. At the same time, the water condition and quality of water towers must also be checked regularly to ensure their safety and availability.
In short, it is possible that water towers will be used for photovoltaic power generation for a long time, but factors such as the water storage capacity of the water tower, the The power supply of the water pump, system stability and maintenance and monitoring must be carefully considered to ensure a continuous supply of water and electricity. It is recommended to consult professionals before implementation to ensure that the design and operation of the system meets the requirements.
